• Your phone is an electronic device that generates heat
during normal operation. Extremely prolonged, direct
skin contact in the absence of adequate ventilation may
result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore, use care
when handling your phone during or immediately after
operation.
• Do not attempt to repair or modify the device yourself.
Your device is equipped with an internal rechargeable
battery which should be replaced only by LG or an
authorized LG repair center. You should never attempt to
open or disassemble this device yourself and doing so
may cause damage that will void your warranty.

1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that
any health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones
are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when
in the standby mode. Whereas high levels of RF can
produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to
low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes
no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low
level RF exposures have not found any biological effects.
Some studies have suggested that some biological effects
may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed
by additional research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in
determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
